About the Workshop
The workshop is organized by:
Mikkel Abrahamsen, University of Copenhagen, Denmark

We created this workshop to identify some new directions in geometric algorithms research that are promising. We aimed for a small number of participants and a high volume of working time to foster close collaborations.
